Z-sections must be driven in pairs which needs a well-designed piling frame and, due to the higher weight as pair, also larger piling equipment. Therefore Z-sections are often used for permanent retaining walls such as quay walls, jetties and other marine structures.

These are just a few examples of hot rolled sheet piles. Many other sections are available on request. Please specify the required section modulus and the application and we will be pleased to recommend the most suitable sheet pile section.
Available steel grades: S240GP, S270GP, S320GP, S355GP, S390 GP, S430GP or equivalent.
